Do you think Kingdom Hearts X Back Cover was a bad movie, If so why? In this video I discuss that very topic, I have a lot of opinions regarding this and cover as much as possible. Anyways i'll leave the rest of the talking to the video, Hope you enjoy!! :D

Heya everyone, hope you're having a fantastic day. Anyway, a thought just crossed my mind, and it could be a possible connection between X and the current timeline. I'm on the go right now so I can't really look up if there's already a similar thread, so if there is please point it out to me and I'll go post this there. Same for things I missed, I'll happily admit if I mess this theory up, I just wanna try and make some sense of all of this.
So I was re-watching Back Cover and in the scene where Gula reveals his role to Ava, he talks about the traitor, "the one who bears the sigil" and about the "inevitable betrayal".
Obviously, not far fetched, that sigil probably equals the "X", we get to know that much in DDD.
Here comes my thought; Luxu (mind the X) is the traitor, but indirectly. To pass as a traitor he would have to disobey the Master, I know, and I also know that he succeeds with his role because 1. the Master points it out and 2. No Name is passed down until it finds its way to Xehanort. So it has to be something else, and I believe, that it's something Luxu - or any of the other foretellers for that matter - had no control over, which would make it "inevitable". I think that one of Luxu and his "worthy apprentice's" successors was the Master of Eraqus and Xehanort. And since Eraqus rules the Land of Departure, I believe that he was meant to be the next to wield No Name. That's speculation, but having it up there on the wall made it seem so important (referring to the KHIII trailer) I can't bring myself to believe the Master would give it to Xehanort, the "worse" student (well, not if it became a custom to just give one pupil the task to protect and the other to travel the world with No Name and the box).
Anyway, assuming No Name was meant for Eraqus, it'd be wrong for Xehanort to have it. Maybe something happened between them, we've seen them fight, Xehanorr killed Eraqus even. And that's my point, I believe that Xehanort betrayed his Master by taking the blade that wasn't meant for him; so his Master didn't fulfill his role properly, which in turn also betrayed the order given down by Luxu.
That'd also explain why the traitor isn't revealed in X. It just doesn't happen in this era.
I see some sort of 'reasoning' for the Dandelions to exist in this as well. The Master says that they have to focus on what comes after the war, because they can't change that it'll happen. That's why he tasks Ava with gathering strong wielders;he knows that down the line Xehanort will come and try to start a new war, so maybe he sees the Dandelions as a force that'll rival Xehanort and keep another war at bay? I believe I read somewhere that Yen Sid had a different Master than Eraqus and Xehanort, which means there had to be other wielders around. Maybe just a former fellow student of the other Master, but maybe someone who got their Keyblade passed down by the Dandelions. The Kingdom Key also shares a strong resemblance to Starlight, which Ephemer and Skuld use, and they are Dandelions...
I really hope this makes some sense, I tend to overlook the most major things sometimes. This would actually give a tad bit more relevance to X than it has now,in my opinion. But what do you think? Is it reasonable or just wishful thinking on my end?

As the title states, this is a non-spoiler theory, so why have I came to such an unusual conclusion, well, this is the factor that came into play.
Artificial Dream Eaters
The Master of Masters created Chirithy. A Dream Eater. As everyone knows, Dream Eaters can only exist in the Realm of Sleep. Artificial Dream Eaters are an exception to the rule because they were created and birthed in the real world. But what has this got to do with the Fortellers? well, what if the Master of Masters artificially created them too? Here are a couple of things to note with regards to the Master of Masters.
In the trailers, the Fortellers rendezvous point is like a lab of sorts. With flasks, test tubes and books on books on books. He may have wanted to create the Fortellers as a means of better understanding the context of future events. After all, he does have the all seeing eye that can see into the future, and so he may have wanted to create the Fortellers as future-proofing himself for the inevitable.
Plus, if we look at the Fortellers, what's the key element that stands out? their masks. They're symbolic of animals. Now, it's easy to connotate those masks with the Seven Deadly Sins, but I think a more simple explanation is that they're Dream Eaters. Now with regular Dream Eaters (with the exception of Chirithy, Riku and Ventus Nightmare), the majority are a mix of two animals or more. The Fortellers can still fit that category? why? because they're a mix of a human and the mask that they wear, for example, Ava is a human + fox Dream Eater.
With Dream Eaters, you have a Spirit and a Nightmare. Well, here are our Spirit Dream Eaters from X...
And here are our Nightmare Dream Eaters from X...
Plus, it makes contextual sense of why the Unchained Realm exists in the first place, Spirit Dream Eater Ava has created it to let the Dandelions live on outside the Keyblade War, and as a Dream Eater, her and the other Fortellers' can also survive the Keyblade War as "Lost Masters" if the world where the Keyblade War took place stayed in slumber.

X Back Cover is probably one of the most exciting things about 2.8. It even competes with 0.2 for me, in fact X Back Cover is probably gonna be the first thing I plan on watching once I get my hands on the game! Since it is 80 minutes while 0.2 looks to be about 3 - 5 hours it'll be easier to get the shortest thing out of the way. But not only that but X Back Cover is just gonna be soo exciting!! Anyways though this video goes into greater detail on why I'm excited for X Back Cover. I hope you guys all enjoy this video And I wanna hear some of the reasons you guys may be excited

For those who are interested, I've made a quick video comparing the voices of the Foretellers with the keyblade heroes that they are believed to reincarnate into. I tried to match up the emotions in the lines given by each character to make it easier, however seeing as the only line we hear Gula say is full of anger I decided to compare it to one of Roxas's lines because Ventus doesn't get angry nearly as much as Roxas does. Also I chose to compare Aced's voice with Terranort rather than Terra as it occurred to me that their voices actually sound very similar. Anyway this video is simply designed to help people see the differences and similarities between the two sets of characters more easily. Hope you like it! And, if you want, let me know your thoughts concerning whether or not the Foretellers' voice actors are the same as the keyblade heroes below

Hey there everyone, how's it going!? So then, from the recent news we got on the Kingdom Hearts series in Dengeki Playstation Magazine's 600th issue, Nomura said that more on the "Lost Master" and Xehanort's Keyblade shall be revealed! And the traitor among the Foretellers shall also finally be revealed!
I find this most interesting! It's certainly looking like Back Cover's gonna form a considerably intriguing amount of story that'll affect Kingdom Hearts III and the series in general! Just what exactly will we be witness to? Regarding Xehanort's Keyblade, will we see how it was forged? Will we see who wielded it before him? And on the subject of the Lost Master, which I'm assuming is the Master Of Masters, will we get some screen time from said character? Because that particular individual is shaping up to be quite an important character, since said character was the one who mentored the Foretellers, correct? And the traitor...just who is the traitor? And might this traitor have any connections at all to Xehanort? Gahh, so many questions! I hope we get the answers! X_X
2.8...come to us already! D: So then everyone, what are your thoughts on all this? I'd like to know!

It's just a thought that popped into my head. The Master Foreteller gathered six particular Keyblade Wielders, made them masters, and alongside the Master Foreteller: vowed to be the guardians of light hence their obsession with the Lux.
One particular Keyblade Master was curious and wondered why there needed to be guardians of light when the worlds were full of light. He started to tamper with the darkness and eventually came to realise that there was an imbalance of light and darkness. Convinced that this particular student no longer fulfilled his duties as a Guardian of Light, the Master Foreteller decided to banish him from the Union, and eventually, the war between 7 lights vs 13 darkness's ensued.

Hey there everyone, how's it going!? So then, with the recent, glorious, juicy bombardment of KH news we've received, something that interested me very much is the fact that X Back Cover is also going to be running on Kingdom Hearts III's engine! Do you know what this means!? SERIOUSLY, DO YOU KNOW WHAT THIS MEANS!?
This means that we'll probably get to see the Keyblade War, in all it's HD, KHIII graphical glory! We'll get to see the downfall of the five unions, and it's probably going to be quite a gruesome sight! Just think about it! If this were to happen, I'd like the segment showing the war to last quite a few minutes, so we can see the variety of different abilities being used by many Keyblade Wielders, plus, seeing the Union leaders themselves fighting! I'm severely hoping this happens!
Seeing all that with Kingdom Hearts III's graphics...lord, it's going to be amazing! X_X
